iwire --still around
1. actually this was an upgrade to 5 meters (4 units + 'house' electrical)...the total load on this 3-plex + front house + laundry room was around 75A!...I forget the calcs but none of these units had anything electrical besides the general lighting/recep load + one washer/dryer that was added (5th meter).
2. "and same meter stack, is that mast complete"?.....not sure what you're asking, yes the mast was complete...just waiting for Poco to hook up...in that photo the new mast was hooked up to the utility drop at the original (abandoned) mast.
3. that 2-hole strap was reinforced with blocking between the rafters behind the 2x facia using 3/8" x 4-1/2" lags (the interior wall was open to the rafters....our Poco requires 3/8 x 3" minimum and only a 2x4 to secure)...BTW - that 'trim' board is 2x material secured every 16"
